Scientists sniff out how 'love' and 'stress' hormones change your brain waves

NCT ID NCT06605300

Summary

This study aimed to understand if two hormones, oxytocin and vasopressin, change how the brain works when given as a nasal spray. Researchers gave 120 healthy adults either oxytocin, vasopressin, or a placebo spray and measured their brain waves while they rested and did simple computer tasks. The goal was to gather basic knowledge about how these hormones influence brain communication, not to treat any condition.
